Summary:
Isolating the source of more than 90 percent of today's most common diseases, from cancer and heart disease to diabetes, stroke, and Alzheimer's, they enumerate the Five Forces of Illness -- Sludge (malnutrition), Burnout (impaired metabolism), Heat (inflammation), Waste (impaired detoxification), and Rust (oxidative stress). Through the practice of the six-week "Ultraprevention" program, you'll learn three simple steps -- each only two weeks long -- that stop these forces and create a lifetime of good health by "removing" allergens, infections, and toxins from the body and environment; "repairing" the body through personalizing nutrition, boosting the immune system, and balancing hormones; and "recharging" with stress management, sleep restoration, and gentle movement.
